Otis Jennings Releases Education Plan

By Chris Ulanowski

Syracuse, NY – Republican Syracuse mayoral candidate Otis Jennings supports the "Say Yes to Education" program that encourages city school kids to do well with the promise of a free college education. But with only half of all city school student graduating, Jennnings says there should also be an emphasis on preparing some kids for the skilled trades. WRVO's Chris Ulanowski asked the candidate to elaborate.

Recent cuts to federal funding are challenging our mission to serve central and upstate New York with trusted journalism, vital local coverage, and the diverse programming that informs and connects our communities. This is the moment to join our community of supporters and help keep journalists on the ground, asking hard questions that matter to our region.

Stand with public media and make your gift today—not just for yourself, but for all who depend on WRVO as a trusted resource and civic cornerstone in central and upstate New York.
